Pros

In Illinois, where I work you receive a "Geo Pay"... Bonus, added to your hourly pay. In Northern Illinois where I am the bonus is 15% of your hourly pay. So the $31.65/ hourly, I make is actually about $36 something. Which is super great. I was looking for work in Wisconsin, which is where I've always worked and the pay I was looking at was $30 at best. I did get hired being told I would be full time, and then last minute, corporate decided the position would be part time. I been here about 6 months or so and am told soon there should be, could be, might be, hopefully soon a fulltime position for me. You don't need to bring your own tools. Tool availability is amazing, anything you want the manager will get what ever you need. They are great about getting you informing about the machinery.

Cons

Thus far the only downside is being part time. I'm not fully sure of the ceiling, as far as where I can go from here. I know there is at least one maintenance position

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
